Adele Adkins and her boyfriend Simon Konecki are reportedly celebrating the arrival of their first child, a son who was delivered by the ‘Rolling in the Deep’ singer on Friday.
Though widespread reports claim they became parents a few days ago, her rep’s only comment was, “We are not releasing a statement at this time.”
Adele, a decidedly private person, waited until June to confirm her pregnancy. She said, “I wanted you to hear the news direct from me, obviously we’re over the moon and very excited but please respect our privacy at this precious time. Yours always, Adele xx.”
Simon and Adele, 24, began a relationship during the summer of 2011 and moved into a $14 million, ten-bedroom 25-acre mansion in West Sussex in February 2012.
Konecki, a charity entrepreneur, has a five-year-old daughter with ex-wife Clary Fisher.
